Rating legend:
5-stars Loved, loved, loved it, unique topic/story and dynamic narration
4-stars Good story and it had good narrator(s)
3-stars Average topic/story and it had good narrator(s)
I won’t have any lower ratings, when I sense a book is not for me I give up on it, life is to short to grunt your way through a book that isn’t for you. ;)
